“Having hosted the First Lady, Michelle Obama, during her London visit for the launch of the Let Girls Learn campaign, I strongly believe that access to a quality education is not only vital for society to flourish but for the betterment of individuals.

SOAS not only provides a great access to a truly global education, but its rich diversity – both within the curriculum and the community – embraces and respects so many walks of life. From the short time that I have been studying at SOAS, I can see that the values the SOAS community promotes are those that cannot be just taught in classrooms but through the debates and conversations that take place here.

As a firm believer in the equality of the sexes and an advocate of human rights, it is so encouraging and inspiring to see that everyone at SOAS has this quality.”
